[QUOTE=Zeb Brown;30940340] Can some one tell me what I'm doing wrong? I want the diamonds to go up before not after[/QUOTE] Propably the same bug I meant, they are blocked, and therefore have to be updated before they move... that's why you have to pull the lever again, hope they fix this soon.

[QUOTE=Zeb Brown;30940340] Can some one tell me what I'm doing wrong? I want the diamonds to go up before not after[/QUOTE] The top pistons have such a huge delay compared to the diamond ones, and you wonder why they don't work? You need the top ones to move first, and then the diamonds. So add more delayers to the diamond pistons.

[video=youtube;603cL6Ezjwc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=603cL6Ezjwc[/video] shows the pusher and the door jump trap, the door jump just got annoying due to the amount of space the redstone took up

[QUOTE=s0ul0r;30939788]You could optimize it by pushing each opposing piston, so you push 2 sides in one clock.[/QUOTE] You're right, and with some modification with repeaters (to act as diodes so they don't fuck up the clock) you could make it a 2 clock instead of a 4 clock, I think that would be the best way.. Gonna mess around and see if a 2 clock is easy enough to make on its own though.

[editline]g[/editline] Anyway, the problem is that, since you're in a cave, when you push the diamond ones up, you're probably trying to push more than 12 blocks.

Guys I just realised you can make a 2 clock as well as a 4 clock! [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5062494/share/minecraft_2clock.gif[/img] I haven't seen it done before so unless it's been done elsewhere you saw it here first!

If you want a 2 clock just wire 2 repeaters together.

[QUOTE=Goz3rr;30943467]It isn't a true 2 clock because of the delay of the block moving. If you want a 2 clock just wire 2 repeaters together.[/QUOTE] That can't have a delay as long as mine (although by chaining repeaters and a not gate in a loop you can get a similar effect)

[QUOTE=Jallen;30943420]Guys I just realised you can make a 2 clock as well as a 4 clock![img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5062494/share/minecraft_2clock.gif[/img]I haven't seen it done before so unless it's been done elsewhere you saw it here first![/QUOTE]Wow what texture pack is that?

...Isn't that how all the ROM (CD's as I like to call them) stuff works?

[QUOTE=Zeb Brown;30943937]Wow what texture pack is that?[/QUOTE] Looks like Dokucraft Light to me. [url]http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/207781-32x17-dokucraft-23-beta-450k-downloads/[/url]

Thanks both of you

Slightly modified (like the dirt in below pic) Also I put my piston 2-clock to use with s0ul0r's suggestion that I don't need 4 phases in a cycle.

Bloody clunky as shit redstone, this took WAY longer than it should've. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVcSrZUBGpo[/media] Well that's the main hallway done, now to spruce it up and add rooms etc etc.

I'm currently creating a large middle-earth themed world, and as for pistons, a dwarven fortress beneath a mountain with piston contraptions and traps.

You're pulling stuff all over the place, you only need 2 piston movements, as shown in this image - [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5062494/junk/simpler_light.png[/img]

[QUOTE=Jallen;30944985]Ok that's really cool, but you overcomplicated it so much. You're pulling stuff all over the place, you only need 2 piston movements, as shown in this image - [/QUOTE] fuck. Thanks, i'll try change it to that at some point, oh god i'm such an idiot.

[QUOTE=decyg;30945147]fuck. Thanks, i'll try change it to that at some point, oh god i'm such an idiot.[/QUOTE] The amount you've learned by making it as complicated as you did has probably made it worth it :P

[QUOTE=Zeb Brown;30943852]So all I have to do is take away a couple blocks above?[/QUOTE] Yup. That'll fix it. Also, can someone link me to the post/video that showed how to swap to blocks out with pistons, to make a floor light switch? I forget where it is.

Elevator concept I just tried out [img]http://i.imgur.com/W9mHt.gif[/img] The pistons on the right are actually sticky pistons and will later be used to make the elevator go down.

[QUOTE=Lazore;30947271]We need to go [I]higher[/I][/QUOTE] I'm working on making it modular.

Video of it going up and down [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJZV2x4rwoE[/media] [editline]6th July 2011[/editline] Automerge!
